Everton 0-0 Newcastle Stats: Anthony Gordon Penalty Failure Proves Costly

Anthony Gordon let a great opportunity slip by to score against his old team, as the match concluded in a draw at Goodison Park. You can revisit this exciting game by checking out the essential details and statistics on our Everton vs Newcastle stats page.

Anthony Gordon had a penalty blocked during his match against his old team, Everton, as Newcastle ended up with a 0-0 draw at Goodison Park on Saturday.

James Tarkowski brought Sandro Tonali down, resulting in a penalty kick, but Jordan Pickford rescued his captain by stopping Tonali's rather weak shot from the penalty spot.

Newcastle largely controlled the game, but they couldn't produce any more shots on target after Gordon scored from the penalty spot in the 35th minute. They struggled with their attacking play without Alexander Isak in the lineup.

If Gordon had successfully converted his penalty, it would have marked his first goal ever against Everton. He had spent six years with the club before moving to Newcastle in 2023.

Iliman Ndiaye stood out for the home team, trying 11 dribbles, which is the second highest for any player in a single Premier League match this season. However, Everton struggled to make an impact in critical moments despite their overall potential.

Idrissa Gueye and Dwight McNeil both missed golden chances to score in the second half.

Nonetheless, Everton will be pleased to achieve their first clean sheet in the Premier League this season.
